Professor Chu, who has returned to the town, told his students that Mr. Hong passed away quietly two days ago.
Zhou wanted to immediately send Lu Ying to the warehouse building to guard the teacher with Ge Xin because she was worried.
Half a month passed peacefully. When Zhou Xiang thought he was worrying too much, in the early morning of the first day of the new year, Ling Ran just received a call from the health park saying that a body was found in the health park, and then there was a knock on the door of Zhou's house.
The police came to the door, showed an arrest warrant and arrested Zhou Xiang. Because the body in the health park was Xue Zhendong, the initial judgment was that it was a homicide.
The only ones who had a grudge against Xue Zhendong were Zhou Xiang and the fugitive Zhou Qing. Since Zhou Qing could not be caught, the only one they could catch was Zhou Xiang.
Ling Ran clenched his fists tightly. Such a frame-up with so many loopholes was actually being made to sound reasonable.
Zhou Xiang waved to him and said goodbye calmly, "Wait for me to come back and comfort my family."
After being put in the detention center, Zhou Xiang waited to see who would come to see her.
But when he actually saw who was coming, Zhou Xiang stood up in shock, grabbed the iron railing with both hands, and couldn't control his tears, "Teacher Guo, why you? Why?!!"
Zhou Xiang shook the iron railing between them sadly and angrily. She could accept betrayal from anyone, even from her parents, but she could not accept the initial warmth in her previous life, which was more heartwarming than the warmth given by her godfather. Why did it become a knife stabbing into her heart at this moment?
Teacher Guo, who was so old that he even trembled when walking, had a wrinkled face with white hair that was so dazzling. His face was no longer gentle and peaceful, but bitter and angry.
"I also want to ask why. Why haven't you come to see me since Zhou Hua entered junior high school? Why haven't you come to see me since you became a lecturer at Hua University? Why wasn't I at your wedding and all the banquets at home? You recognized the teachers at Xuzhen Primary School, you recognized the teachers at Huaixian No. 1 Middle School, you recognized the teachers in the capital, why not me?
Yes, I only taught you for half a semester in first grade, but when you transferred to another school with Zhou Hua, were you really crying? You only brought me food a few times, but you caused me so much pain, do you know that?
You can give the medicine to others, that's fine! You can sell the medicine to others, that's fine! You can sell it to Doctor Cao's son for 100,000, or to others for millions, that's fine, it has nothing to do with me.
You are providing for Professor Chu, the one who has been the most kind to you and raised you the most, in his old age. Okay, you gave dried fruits and dried fish to others, that's fine too, but you also gave some to Huai County. Why did you leave me alone?
You missed me again and again, and I suffered torture again and again, the torture of wanting to die but not being able to. That is the painful torture that others, including you, cannot bear. If you pay a little attention to me, you will definitely find it.
Finally, I had no choice but to compromise. Today, I came here with only one request: you follow me obediently.
"good!"
Zhou Xiang nodded with tears in her eyes. Was her deliberate avoidance actually the source of the other person's pain? Then she should face it herself. "Teacher Guo, I'm sorry!"
Explaining it was too weak, so I could only say sorry. From now on, we'll just be strangers, okay? Zhou wanted to wipe away the tears in his eyes, "What's Master's last name?"
"Han."
"Oh." So his last name was Han! Teacher Guo was right to blame him. He had only just now learned that his master's last name was Han.
Thanks to Zhou Xiang's cooperation, the two were able to leave the detention center smoothly.
Ling Ran had no choice but to call the captain for help in this deliberate frame-up. When Tang Ganwen heard that Zhou Xiang was arrested, he naturally wanted to help.
The matter was handled quickly. Xue Zhendong ran to the health park while escaping from loan sharks, but the health park was surrounded by high walls. He finally climbed up the wall, but who knew that the height inside was even higher. Seeing that he was about to be caught, he made up his mind and jumped down, but accidentally twisted his ankle and fell, hitting his head on the wall. As for being classified as homicide, it was just that the trainee police officer saw the impact on the deceased's head and determined that the deceased was hit on the head with a heavy object and died.
Ling Ran looked at Tang Ganwen, "Do you believe it?"
Tang Ganwen shook his head. "You have to believe it even if you don't want to. Who told you to step down? Now that you have no power to rely on, all you have is fame and fortune. Aren't you just dough in someone else's hands? They can mold you however they want."
"What about you now?" Ling Ran was worried about the captain. He had always been the helper of the three big guys. This time, none of the three were left, and the captain might not have a good ending.
"Let's walk and see! If you wait a little longer, I can retreat."
Tang Ganwen accompanied Ling Ran to the detention center and brought Zhou Xiang back. Seeing that Zhou Xiang was relatively silent, he couldn't help but comfort him, "Don't think too much. At worst, just take out your medal."
"Yeah," Zhou Xiang hummed softly, and said to the captain and Ling Ran, "I'm going back to my room to rest."
When Zhou Xiang left, Tang Ganwen looked at Ling Ran, who was frowning, and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
"It's okay," Ling Ran shook his head. "You should go back quickly! You helped me with a personal matter this time, and it would be difficult to explain if you go back."
"A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water. Whatever! I'm also at the age to retire." After Tang Ganwen and Ling Ran laughed for a few words, they said goodbye and left.
Ling Ran returned to the room and saw that Zhou Xiang had already fallen asleep. His brows furrowed even deeper, and he stared at the sleeping person for a long while before leaving the room and returning to the study.
Zhou Xiang lying on the bed raised his eyelids slightly, then closed his eyes again and continued to sleep.
During dinner, Professor Chu noticed that his student looked unhappy and asked worriedly, "The murder case at the Health Garden has been investigated, so why are they still not allowed to open?"
Zhou Xiang turned to look at Ling Ran, who shook his head, "Just wait and see! It all depends on their mood. It's just that they've fallen prey to the eyes of those with ulterior motives!"
Zhou Xiang paused slightly, said nothing, and lowered his head to eat.
The atmosphere of this meal did not have the joy of surviving a disaster that everyone expected. Instead, it was even more depressing than when Zhou Xiang had not yet come out.
Lu Ying looked at her sister and saw her shaking her head at her, so she could only lower her head and follow Professor Chu away.
In the evening, after taking a bath, Zhou Xiang rolled into Ling Ran's arms, sobbing.
Ling Ran's body stiffened for a moment, then he raised his hand and patted her back, "Don't cry, don't cry, things will eventually pass. At worst, we can just give up the health garden. Anyway, we can't spend all the money you have in your hands in several lifetimes."
Zhou Xiang cried for a while before touching the ring on her hand and said, "Everything inside has been taken away. All our family property is gone. We must keep the Health Garden in our hands."
Ling Ran was stunned, staring at the ring on Zhou Xiang's finger for a long time before saying, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's do our best!"
"Okay!" Zhou Xiang raised his head and wanted to kiss Ling Ran, but Ling Ran pushed him away. "I didn't brush my teeth, and I haven't been feeling well lately. I've even felt weak. Didn't you notice that the last few times?"
Zhou Xiang was stunned for a moment, "I didn't care! You are only fifty years old, right?"
"Yeah! You've been tossing it around too much before, and now it's not working well. Let me rest for a few days and eat something to replenish my energy and see how it goes."
"All right."
"Be good and go to sleep!"
"Um."
After the person in his arms fell asleep, Ling Ran's eyes turned cold.
